검증된 단계별 안내

Step 1: Recall the definition of the hyperbolic tangent function: tanh(x)=ex-e-xex+e-x.
Step 2: Substitute -x into the definition of tanh. This gives: tanh(-x)=e-x-exe-x+ex.
Step 3: Factor out -1 from the numerator of the fraction: tanh(-x)=-(ex-e-x)e-x+ex.
Step 4: Recognize that the numerator is the negative of the numerator in the definition of tanh(x). Thus, tanh(-x)=-tanh(x).
Step 5: Conclude that the identity tanh(-x)=-tanh(x) is proven using the definition of hyperbolic functions.

Hyperbolic Functions

Hyperbolic functions are analogs of trigonometric functions but are based on hyperbolas rather than circles. The primary hyperbolic functions include sinh(x), cosh(x), and tanh(x), which are defined as sinh(x) = (e^x - e^(-x))/2, cosh(x) = (e^x + e^(-x))/2, and tanh(x) = sinh(x)/cosh(x). Understanding these definitions is crucial for proving identities involving hyperbolic functions.

Odd and Even Functions

An odd function is defined by the property f(-x) = -f(x), while an even function satisfies f(-x) = f(x). The hyperbolic tangent function, tanh(x), is an odd function, which means that tanh(-x) = -tanh(x). This property is essential for proving identities involving tanh, as it allows for simplifications when substituting negative arguments.

Proof Techniques in Calculus

Proof techniques in calculus often involve direct substitution, algebraic manipulation, and the application of definitions. To prove identities like tanh(−x) = −tanh x, one typically starts with the left-hand side, applies the definition of tanh, and uses properties of exponents and odd functions to arrive at the right-hand side. Mastery of these techniques is vital for successfully demonstrating mathematical identities.
